Winter exists in NJ

• brianwawok 10y ago
  Winter exists in Chicago. Never stopped me from walking a few miles. A normal healthy person should be able to walk 2-3 miles down to -10 degrees or so, which would cover 99.99% of the year. Yes babies and the old and the sick need something else, but the bulk of people commuting on these trains are 30-60 year old healthy (if not a bit overweight) individuals.

    Summit is suburbia. You don't have sidewalks across the entire city, it's very hilly in places, and the train station is not centrally located. Walking and biking year round is out of the question, and that's not even accounting for people not promptly clearing snowy sidewalks before commuting hours start (usually 6am).
